i check at the first post, saying the good recommended workshop SC is at Seri Kembangan, which is near to me. can i buy myself those stuff needed to replace and ask them to pasang as well as the spark plug too?

and how much will it cost? roughly be it buy myself and ask them install or everything they do.

thank you

Ppl say no money change tyres, some more you ask to change 17" rim...17" tyres very good grip also very very very good way to empty pocket with exhorbitant increment of tyre price. Even a 15" 205/55 Michelin XM2 cost RM 400++ nowadays, 17" can die liao.

I almost call derrick for persona but opted for Klang SA. Both pro and cons. Very fast sell car and get new car (within 2 weeks) but zero personal discount (except for the proton 2K discount). No choice, have to sell car fast fast before JPJ implement those troublesome checking thingy, at least I no need to bear cost of JPJ charges and those possible repair charges.

You selling Denso Iridium meh...I gonna get proton FOC change at 20K but will change them to iridium at 40K but that will be abt 1.5 - 2 years later kuah.

They change for u on the same day? Or they had to order the parts and go back another day?

Serdang SC gives good service..
U can buy the engine oil, timing belt and spark plugs urself..It will be cheaper than buying from them. Timing belt the best u can get out there is Gates.. But beware of imitation..
The gear oil is better to use the OEM ones.. Air filter its better if u get those performance drop in ones.. The ones we are using is Works Engineering drop in and it will last a lifetime.. U just need to clean it by flushing it with water every 5k km.. Its Rm120 each..

Added on June 24, 2011, 9:44 amLOL u hvnt seen jackyap drive b4.. He drive car bantai 180kmh all the time whenever possible.. So better grip tires are more important lah. haha.. Wow the new XM2 15" is RM400??!!! Too expensive lah.. Damn.. The new Bridgestone RE002 is out too.. But dunno whats the price yet..

I got it from derrick cos he had ready stock.. and i was rushing for a car.. I got the car within 3days.. And he came to my house to get my signature for the documents cos i have no car.. So not bad lah.. Good SA.. and he offered the highest amount of discounts too..

Yeah I do bulk.. Now i got 5sets extra with me here.. Each set for RM160.. XD After change to iridium ady can last 100k km.. 4 years no need to worry about changing plugs. .haha..

ok, the engine oil part, what is recommended oil? because the car heavily use, FYI, it's 80000 in 4 years.

For 4 year old engine use at least 40 viscosity oil.. As there will be a fair amount of wear and tear done to the engine.. 80k km in 4 years isnt heavily used.. Its below standard average.. Average mileage a year is 25000km.. So 4 years u will normally get 100k km.. So look for fully synthetic oil with 0W-40/5W-40 oil grades.. Good brands to recommend is Castrol Edge, Eneos..

owh, not heavily use... my bad not stating clearly,

it's 2 weeks, already 6k only by me,

erm ok, thanks a lot with the info. really appreciate it.

Wow 6k km in 2 weeks.. Thats super heavy duty ady..

on the same day, and they now fixing my sub oil-leaked problem as well. there goes my whole morning..... knn sien now...

ohh.. thanks ya bro.. if i wan install the muffler, how much would the market price ya? another question, would it effect the performance pick up or top speed if i install the body kit?

Currently at serdang sc.. waiting for me turn..
I got one long list for them to claim..

Oil leaking? They got say what's the prob?

Performance & pick up affected with bodykit? My car stock standard with bodykit can go 200km/h.

Actually, what is ur priority here? Do u know what's the point of installing a muffler in the first place? The removal n replacement of a new muffler is pretty much useless. It can be done, but if u're replacing muffler only then the only thing u'll be getting is sound.

Bro, take easy on him. He cannot differentiate muffler from skirting.

What kind of item u trying to claim ? Can list out ?

That's what I thought

erm question, if 80k service cost a lot, is it possible at 75k or 70k we bring earlier some of the service items from 80K's?

any suggestion?

sorry r boss.. now i get some of the idea d..

install bodykit for better aerodynamics ar.. better flow..

on my odometer, read 76000, i rounded up to 80k, easier

The common Michellin XM2 195/55/R15 cost abt RM260. Not sure if 205/55 mentioned is maybe wrongly type, 16" maybe. It seems price difference between different size within same inches also quite great.
